A Walk on Wreck Beach, Vancouver, BC

I don’t always take my camera when I’m out walking the dogs, but since the D800 is new I decided to bring it along today. I was using the Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 VR lens, which I love. All shots hand held, so may not be critically sharp especially when shooting in the shady areas. It’s still too early in the year, and too cold, for the nudies to be out so I had the beach to myself.

This is one of my dogs, Jammie. She is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, small but thinks she is a big dog.

You see some interesting critters when you start getting close

I have also been playing around with black and white images more and more. The D800 captures so much detail and has so much dynamic range you can really get great effects with b&w.

This was a bit random, looks like someone brought it to the beach and stuck it in the sand. I didn’t see these growing anywhere.

The horror! Actually they are rather cute, as long as they don’t decide to set up shop in my back yard.
